Payment and
Credit Policies
Payment
• All advertisements must be paid in advance unless otherwise specified
by the Daily Sundial.
• Visa, Mastercard and American Express are accepted.
• Checks or Money Orders should be made payable to the Daily Sundial.
Make-Good Policy
Advertisements that will be considered for a make-good adjustment
are those in which the phone number, price of item advertised, date,
time, or place of event are incorrect, providing the error is the sole fault
of the Daily Sundial. In order for an advertisement to be considered for
any amount of make good, the Daily Sundial must be notified within
5 working days after the date of publication in which the error occurs.
The liability of the Daily Sundial shall not exceed the original cost of the
advertisement. The Daily Sundial will not be responsible for any copy
changes received by telephone. Minor typographical errors do not
qualify for make-good adjustments.
Advertising Policy
The Daily Sundial has the responsibility of
serving the university community within the
guidelines established by the Department
of Journalism. The paper is not a personal
organization of anyone. Any controversy or
issue should be fairly presented in the news,
editorial and/or advertising columns.
The Daily Sundial attempts to give advertisers
extreme latitude regarding content of
advertisements, subject to the following
reservations:
• The Daily Sundial has the right to deny
space to any advertiser. The advertiser may
appeal any decision.
• The Daily Sundial will not accept advertising
that is indecent, obscene, libelous or an
invasion of privacy.
• The Daily Sundial will not accept advertising
that contains attacks or slurs of a racial, ethnic,
sexist or religious nature.
• The Daily Sundial does not accept advertising
submitted in the expectation of receiving
publicity in news or editorial columns.
• The Daily Sundial will not accept advertising
that might destroy the confidence of
the readers or advertisers. This includes
advertising that is misleading, deceptive or
fraudulent, or grossly exaggerates or makes
unwarranted complaints. One criterion
to be used to evaluate advertisements is
rulings of local, state and federal agencies.
• The Daily Sundial will not accept advertising
that evades or attempts to encourage the
evasion or violation of any law, regulation
or ordinance-municipal, state, federal or
university. (This paragraph should not be
misconstrued to mean that advertisements
lawfully opposing, criticizing, deploring
or denouncing any law, regulation or
ordinance are discouraged.)
• The Daily Sundial’s view on opinion
advertisements is to keep the advertising
columns open to those who wish to express
a particular point of view, no matter how
widely divergent it may be from the opinions
of the journalism faculty and students — so
long as such advertisements do not advocate
the illegal overthrow of the government and
do not violate other principles set forth in this
policy. Full identification of the sponsors of an
opinion advertisement is required. At the Daily
Sundial’s request, the names of two or more
of the officers of the sponsoring organization
must appear in the advertisement as well as
the address of the advertiser. If the names
of other people, groups or organizations are
to appear in the advertisement (such as a
political endorsement), the advertiser must
furnish evidence that all such people, groups
or organizations have given permission for
the use of their names.
• All advertising in the Daily Sundial must be
presented in a form that clearly distinguishes
it from the news content.
• The Daily Sundial will not accept
advertisements during the remainder of any
academic year for a product or a corporation
if the corporation or its officers have been
convicted of a crime related to that product.
• If an advertisement run in the Daily
Sundial is later found to violate any one
of these standards, the advertisement will
be pulled and a statement may be run in
the Daily Sundial to advise the readers that
the advertisement was run in error and
that the advertisement did violate Daily
Sundial policy.
